Breast Enlargement with Fat Filling

What is Breast Enlargement with Fat Filling?

It is the process of applying fat taken from other parts of the body to the breast to increase fullness. If you are not very keen on placing implants in your breasts, fat transfer to the breast can be preferred as an alternative application to increase fullness.

Fat augmentation procedures are becoming increasingly popular among women who want a modest increase in breast size and a natural-looking result.

Since the patient’s own fat is used in this procedure, there is an extremely low risk of side effects. Additionally, women who have had fat transferred to the breast should never worry about potential complications associated with silicone breast implants.

Frequently Asked Questions About Breast Enlargement with Fat Filling

For a fat transfer procedure, a type of liposuction is performed on an area where there is plenty of fatty tissue, such as the abdomen, back or thighs. This fatty tissue is then purified and made ready for re-injection into the breast.

Unfortunately, breast enlargement with fat tissue transfer is not a suitable method for everyone. The main factors that determine this are your body structure and the result you want to achieve. For example, for patients hoping for a larger increase in breast size, it may be more appropriate to use silicone implants, as there is a limit to the amount of fat that can be safely and successfully transferred during fat transfer to the breast.

As with any procedure, the results may vary from person to person. One of the most important factors in ensuring the results of your breast fat transfer last as long as possible is avoiding weight fluctuations. Because fat cells can grow and shrink with weight gain and loss. For this reason, patients are recommended to eat healthy and maintain a stable weight.

The duration of this surgery may vary depending on where the fat from the body will be taken from. If fat removal will be performed only from the abdominal area, the surgery will be completed after approximately 2 hours. If there is insufficient fat in the abdominal area, the surgery time may be longer as fat will need to be removed from other areas.

In the first few days after surgery, it is normal to have slight pain in the breasts and other parts of the body where fat was removed by liposuction. It is generally possible to return to normal life after a week. It is necessary to avoid strenuous exercises, including heavy lifting and sports, for a certain period of time.
